How about now?

How about now?

A mother and her son were flying Southwest Airlines from Oakland to Kansas City.

The son, who had been looking out the window, turned to his mother and said, "If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don't big planes have baby planes? The mother, who couldn't think of an answer, told her son to ask the flight attendant.

So, the little boy asked the flight attendant, "If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don't big planes have baby planes?" The flight attendant asked, "Did your mother tell you to ask me that?" He said that she had.

With a clever grin, she said, "Tell your mother it's because Southwest Airlines always pulls out on time."

Its A Raw Deal!

Following the problems in the sub-prime lending market in America and the run on HBOS in the UK , uncertainty has now hit Japan .

In the last 7 hours Origami Bank has folded, Sumo Bank has gone belly up and Bonsai Bank announced plans to cut some of its branches. Yesterday, it was announced that Karaoke Bank is up for sale and will likely go for a song, while today shares in Kamikaze Bank were suspended after they nose-dived.

Samurai Bank is soldiering on following sharp cutbacks, Ninja Bank is reported to have taken a hit, but they remain in the black. Furthermore, 500 staff at Karate Bank got the chop and analysts report that there is something fishy going on at Sushi Bank where it is feared that staff may get a raw deal.

This isn't particularly disgusting

This isn't particularly disgusting, but way back in '91 when I canoed the Yukon, we camped in the wilderness with no toilet for miles around. That's when we found out why we had to take a trowel each on the trip.
Ever wiped your arse with grass? It's horrid.
It got to the point where just to be nasty, we'd throw the trowel back into camp yelling "shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitt!" as loudly as possible.
It was really bad for all of us though when we all got the shits from not boiling the river water properly.....ew!
